Cell expansion, gene transfer and protein production were all executed with a single serum-free, animal protein-free commercial medium designed for suspension-adapted Chinese hamster ovary cells (CHO DG44). This is a most important process to consider for ...
NOVELTY - A formulation comprising one or more components chosen from interleukin (IL)-2 or a derivative thereof coupled to a transport protein, a monoclonal anti-IL-2 antibody, a cancer vaccine based on specific antigens of tumors or tumor growth factors ...
Bone marrow transplantation (BMT) is commonly used in the treatment of leukemia, however its therapeutic application is partly limited by the high incidence of associated opportunistic infections. We modeled this clinical situation by infecting mice that u ...
Accumulation in brain of the beta-amyloid peptide (Abeta) is considered as crucial pathogenic event causing Alzheimer's disease (AD). Anti-Abeta immune therapy is a powerful means for Abeta clearance from the brain. We recently showed that intravenous inje ...
Bordetella pertussis adenylate cyclase (CyaA) toxoid is a powerful nonreplicative immunization vector targeting dendritic cells, which has already been used successfully in prophylactic and therapeutic vaccination in various preclinical animal models. Here ...
The biological relevance of nonneutralizing antibodies elicited early after infection with noncytopathic persistence-prone viruses is unclear. We demonstrate that cytotoxic T lymphocyte-deficient TgH(KL25) mice, which are transgenic for the heavy chain of ...
The immune response to soluble antigens constitutes a current clinical problem impeding the development of protein therapeutics. We have developed an encapsulated-cell delivery system, which, transiently combined with an anti-CD154 antibody treatment, allo ...
The encounter between anisotropic agents in diffusion-controlled reactions is a topic of very general relevance in chemistry and biology. Here we introduce a simplified model of encounter of an isotropic molecule with a pair of partially reacting agents an ...
Proteins of the 6-kDa early secreted antigenic target (ESAT-6) secretion system-1 of Mycobacterium tuberculosis are not only strongly involved in the anti-mycobacterial Th1-host immune response but are also key players for virulence. In this study, protein ...
The mechanism of CD8 cooperation with the TCR in antigen recognition was studied on live T cells. Fluorescence correlation measurements yielded evidence of the presence of two TCR and CD8 subpopulations with different lateral diffusion rate consts. Indepen ...
